FWIW, I can reproduce it on linux, but only if I -fno-sanitize-recover instead
of -fsanitize-trap=alignment. That then also produces a nicer explanation of
the problem:

/home/andres/src/postgresql/src/backend/replication/basebackup.c:1552:10: runtime error: member access within
misalignedaddress 0x000002b9ce09 for type 'PageHeaderData' (aka 'struct PageHeaderData'), which requires 4 byte
alignment

The problem originates in bbsink_copystream_begin_backup()...
